Patent attributes
A solid state driver to adapt current ripple characteristics therein, at least partially based on operating characteristics of a solid state lighting device operated by the driver, is provided. The driver senses operating voltage, operating current, or a combination of operating voltage and operating current of a solid state lighting device. The driver stores pre-determined current ripple percentage settings in a data structure, for example, in a controller circuit. The driver selects and implements one of the pre-determined current ripple percentage settings based on one or more of the sensed operating characteristics of the solid state lighting device, to improve efficiency, to reduce the operating frequency, and/or to lower the operating temperature of one or more components of the driver.
